7 About WCF and Sutherland Institute

World Congress of Families

The World Congress of Families provides sound scholarship and effective strategies to affirm and defend the natural family, thus encouraging a sustainable and free society. The Congress seeks to mobilize intellectual and advocacy resources to change the terms of the debate. The definition of the “natural family” comes from a working group of the World Congress of Families crafted in May 1998. It is informed by the ideals of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and by the findings of social science.

The World Congress of Families was co-founded in the mid-1990s by Dr. Allan Carlson and the Illinois- based Howard Center for Family, Religion, and Society. It was initiated in response to the dire condition of the family around the world: birth rates were reaching catastrophic lows, marriages were breaking up with routine frequency, and fewer people were expressing interest in getting married in the first place. These developments were not merely personal preferences—they were having a huge public impact, with grave effects on the economy, community bonds, and the cultural climate.

A group of social scientists, family activists, lawmakers, and religious leaders resolved to fight these developments by holding a global gathering under the World Congress of Families umbrella. This initial group realized that there were many people who were passionate and involved in the pro-family movement, but that on the whole the family movement was fragmented—divided along religious or ideological lines—and lacking a cohesive voice and a united mission.

The World Congress of Families was formed to bring those disparate community and religious leaders together to learn about the latest social science data on the family, to exchange ideas about how to strengthen the position of the family in culture and in society, and to celebrate the unique goods of family life by participating in family-focused events and enrichment activities.

The World Congress of Families project continues to be owned and operated by the Howard Center. Each Congress is conducted using an “Olympic model,” wherein the administration for the event is awarded to a local host organization that is primarily responsible for setting the event agenda, managing logistics, and finding event sponsors. After an extensive application and vetting process, the administration for WCF IX was awarded to Sutherland Institute.

Sutherland Institute

Sutherland Institute is a conservative public policy educational organization committed to shaping Utah law and policy based on a core set of governing principles. As a 501 (c)(3), Sutherland strives to make Utah an example of good government for the rest of the nation and a great place to live, work, and raise a family.

Sutherland’s objective has been, and forever will be, to influence public policy in Utah according to enduring principles such as private initiative, self-reliance, and family as the fundamental unit of society. The Institute seeks to influence law and society, and provide an effective vehicle for fellow Utahns to influence public policy as well.
